Raptors Lineups
Lowry/Vazquez/Cherry
DeRozan/Lou Will/Hamilton
Ross/JJ/Bruno
Amir/2Pat/Claver
Val/McGee/Bebe

Why Raptors: We acquired Jordan Hamilton for a one year contract so it makes Fields and Hayes expendable. I say, we trade the following to get a backup C in McGee (he will be an expiring next year), even though I'm not a big fan of him but he is a decent backup C and can block shots and collect rebounds, would be fun to watch if we make to the playoff, he can't be all that bad. We also acquire a PF in Victor Claver, whos' young and can be a younger version of Tyler Hansborough

Denver are really big on McGee, and what they bring in does not help them at all.

Portland benefits immensely because their bench gets a much needed upgrade, something they have been looking for for some time now.

I really think that the Raptors need a veteran C, not a young one like McGee who is still seemingly going through a period of learning. We need a low maintenance, skilled player that can play productive minutes. I just feel like McGee creates more problems instead of solving them.
